The imageRUNNER 8500 is a high-volume digital production system that sets new standards for speed, performance, reliability, and document finishing. Its 85 page-per-minute speed, combined with a monthly duty cycle of 400,000 impressions, make it ideal for the most demanding production environments.
The imageRUNNER 8500 ships standard as a standalone digital copier, but can be easily upgraded to deliver network printing and scanning capabilities. In addition, the imageRUNNER 8500 supports Canon's Universal Send™ capability, which allows users to scan and "push" documents via communicating machines, including e-mail, I-Fax, FTP and local area networks.
Offering a standard 100-sheet Automatic Document Feeder, Trayless Duplexing, a large 7,650-sheet maximum paper capacity, 2400 x 600 dpi interpolated printing resolution, and a choice of finishing options, the imageRUNNER 8500 is a solution that truly stands apart from competitive offerings in its class.
